I have always hated cooking, the less time I can spend in the kitchen the better. I'm ashamed to say it took me until 29 to discover the holy grail that is the slow cooker, and this year the rice cooker entered. All my meat for the week is cooked in a slow cooker on Sunday, almost zero prep...

Hi there and thank you in advance for clicking on my post and any help you may be able to give me. 3 months ago I started a High Protein Diet and now would like to get off, but I know it’s not just as simple to just quit the diet as if I did that and went back to my normal self I know my lab...

Just a recommendation: if you get a result that sound way off, definitely ask for a free replacement/redo. I had a bunch of things tested lasted week, and my test levels came back at 83... Zero chance I could have had that happen given 6 months ago they were ~500. Got a free test to...

Hello, New to BB forum just have a question about an issue plaguing me right now. Here's the story. I've been lifting for about 10 years since I was around 14. I'm 6'0" 225 lbs. From late 2017 until Feb. of 2020 I basically lifted for "maintenance" about twice a week. Starting at the...

I am having trouble figuring out the best solution. Currently taking adhd medication which is reducing appetite but still trying to get proper protein intake. Liquids seem to still go down pretty easy. Would it be okay to replace 2-3 meals with protein shakes health wise? Also slight lactose...

My meal plan has me eating two meals w 55g protein. Been told by some that the body can only absorb 35g and the rest goes to waste, and others say that’s a myth and it just takes longer to process 55g. I’m doing intermittent fasting, two meals w 55g of protein each meal (plus other macros). So...

Hi all, First off I'll start out with that I am no stranger to working out, have been for 10+ years. I'm sure you've all heard it before, "I scored a cushy job and stopped working out blah blah blah." Now I am biggest I've ever been(5'11" 240 pounds) ect. I realize I will need to much more...

So I am 18 y/o, 6'1, and 135 ibs. I bulked about 8 months ago and gained 20 ibs in 3 months, I looked decent and gained a lot of strength.

Hi folks - I was wondering anyone could have a read of the following and just make sure I've got my thinking right. I've just lost a good chunk of weight - down to 75kg, 166lb. I've treated the weight loss as a "Body Reset" with the goal of starting weight training again when the gyms open next...

Hey all, I'm a 27m casual lifter and am looking to get people's thoughts on what I've started calling 'swing dieting'. Basically, I feel like I alternate between losing focus on my diet and getting fat, and being laser focused on a very rigid diet to lose that fat. The problem is this sort of...

I have been doing free weights at home for a few years now and had found a 2,800 cal diet (calculated by the TDEE on this site) 40% Protein 40% Carb 20% fat diet worked for me. I eat about 6 or 7 times a day. I want to start Body Beast but want to know how critical it would be to stick with...
